Chapter 120 Sitting on the ground to share the spoils
Gao Lishi is gone.
Li Cangyu returned to the house, and Hao Tingyu looked at him with a concealed look on his face.
"When I saw Gao Weng go out, I smiled brightly." Li Cangyu was a little funny, "Have you learned to be funny from the actors from Pingkangfang?"
"Funny?" Hao Tingyu's face was about to cramp, and she was speechless!
"Hey, why do you have this expression?" Li Cangyu smiled, "What did you say to Mr. Gao?"
"That's a big deal!" Hao Tingyu turned over and lay on the military bed, "Sleep! Wait for death!"
"Waiting for death?" Li Cangyu laughed loudly. It was not that serious. It was almost the same to wait for the reward!
In this way, Li Cangyu and Hao Tingyu were locked in the Feilongqi barracks and kept them in captivity for five or six days. During this period, no one came to see them again, so naturally they could not know the news from the outside world.
Li Cangyu was not nervous, but the feeling of waiting was the most difficult, especially when there was nothing but a strong man around him. Hao Tingyu, who hadn't drunk for several days, was even more restless and said from time to time, "Or give me some fun sooner."
Finally that morning, several officials came to the military camp and asked to take Li Cangyu to the Censorate for questioning, but Hao Tingyu was left behind.
"What's the reason?" Hao Tingyu was very embarrassed and angry, "I am his top peak - I am the mastermind! It is obvious that I am the mastermind!"
Li Cangyu smiled and comforted him, "Big people often appear in the end, so don't be impatient!"
"Wait a minute!" Hao Tingyu grabbed him tightly, "This time, we have to unify our caliber!"
"You have been talking for several days, are you tired?" Li Cangyu smiled bitterly, "When the two Taoists handed over the top, our affairs have been clearly understood by the superiors. Let's tell the truth, you can only seek death if you intercede with your confession!"
"Boy..." Hao Tingyu was a little reluctant to speak, "Kidnap witnesses and set up private courts. Such law enforcement is illegal. You can't bear it if you are a seventh-rank official! I am a fifth-rank official at least. The law is expensive for the fifth-rank or above, and there is an "eight discussions" method to reduce sentences. In short, I will lose the official at most. If the charge falls on your head, you may lose your head!"
Li Cangyu was slightly stunned, "That's what you said to Gao Weng that day?"
Hao Tingyu did not admit it directly, but said, "Listen to me, just say that this matter is my mastermind."
"..." Li Cangyu fell silent for a moment.
"Boy, if you just listen to the words on the top of the peak occasionally, can you die?"
"Don't worry, I won't be in trouble. Neither will you." Li Cangyu smiled slightly, "Absolutely not--good, leave!"
Hao Tingyu was furious and sweared, "Bastard! Bastard!!"
Li Cangyu followed the official to the Censorate. It happened to be noon, and the officials all went to have dinner and rest. They asked Li Cangyu to wait in the same room and ask the case again in the afternoon.
Li Cangyu had no choice but to wait.
Not a moment later, someone knocked on the door. Li Cangyu found it funny, but someone actually knocked on the door?
This is almost a cell where prisoners are temporarily detained. Not only are there a public guarding the door but also locked up. Should I say...
"Please come in?"
There was a sound of iron locks and the door was opened. Wei Jiansu walked in, with a man carrying a large food box next to him.
"It's time to have a meal at noon." Wei Jiansu smiled, "Cang Yu, are you okay?"
Li Cangyu was amused and crying, "Everything else is good, I just haven't taken a shower for a few days, so I feel uncomfortable!"
"Come on, let's have the meal first." Wei Jiansu smiled with a smile on his face.
The man took out the food in the food box. When Li Cangyu saw it, he saw the whole steamed chicken, stewed lamb bone soup, big meat steamed buns, seasonal vegetables, pickles and fruits.
"Wei Shaoqing, this is something that only officials above the fifth rank can eat." Li Cangyu has seen it.
Wei Jiansu smiled and said, "I haven't eaten yet. I'm just waiting for you here!"
After saying that, he waved his hand, and the man who delivered the food went out and the door was closed.
Li Cangyu smiled in his heart. Seeing Wei Sei's spirit of "a happy person's spirits are refreshed when he is happy", Wang Hui's case is already 90% sure of victory!
"Come on, don't be polite, eat quickly." Wei Jiansu took action and handed a big chicken leg to Li Cangyu.
Add chicken legs?
"Thank you, Wei Shaoqing, then I'm not polite!" Li Cangyu laughed and picked it up and ate it.
Wei Jiansu also started to move. He was a typical wise man. When he was eating, he was soaked with chopsticks at most one centimeter.
While eating, Wei Jiansu whispered: "This case has basically been settled. Wang Hui is dead!"
"So fast?"
"It's fast. But... it's really not easy!" Wei Jiansu sighed and whispered, "Because of Li Linfu, he was constantly putting pressure on Chen Xilie and Yang Guozhong. I was also called and taught me a lesson several times."
Li Cangyu nodded. The one who least hoped that Wang Hui would fall the world now should be Li Linfu. They have worked together for many years and have controlled the entire Tang Dynasty court to death. If Wang Hui fell, Li Linfu would have lost half of the country!
"But it's useless!" Wei Jiansu changed his mind and said, "This time, even Chen Xilie, who has always been timid and indifferent, has hardened his neck and has to do things impartially!"
Li Cangyu nodded with a smile. In terms of status, the status of "Left Prime Minister" Chen Xilie is second only to that of the right Prime Minister Li Linfu. But in fact, Chen Xilie is just a sound-like decoration carefully selected by Li Linfu. The most common scene is that Li Linfu's office is crowded with officials, and there are endless exchanges. Chen Xilie's side is deserted. He just dresses up as a mud-fetal Bodhisattva all day long and takes a nap.
But this time, Chen Xilie, the mud-born prime minister, finally got the opportunity to get rid of Li Linfu's control and do something big. Can he not cherish it?
As for Wei Jiansu and Yang Guozhong, let alone.
Emperor Li Longji selected three such people to be responsible for the trial of Wang Hui's case. His intentions were actually very clear - Wang Hui must die!
"Cangyu..." Wei saw Su approaching a little, his expression seemed a little bit happy, "I heard that after the case was completed, Yang Guozhong will be promoted to the Censor's Officer. The position of Censor's Officer whom he left behind will be taken over by me."
There is no big difference between the Dali Shaoqing and the Censor Central Chief. However, the Censor Central Chief of the Xuanzong period was not an ordinary person. They usually hold many "commissioned positions", and their real power is many times greater than that of the Dali Shaoqing!
It can be said that those who can serve as the Chief Censor can basically be regarded as the favorite minister of Emperor Li Longji and the powerful minister who holds real power.
"Is that true?" Li Cangyu looked surprised and bowed, "That's true, congratulations to Wei Shaoqing!"
"Haha, it's too early, it's too early!" Wei Jiansu waved his hand repeatedly, "I heard that my superiors will give you special rewards."
"Is that true?" Li Cangyu seemed a little excited, and seemed a little embarrassed, "What... a way to commend?"
"This... I don't know much." Wei Jiansu said with a smile, "Anyway, I will never treat you badly!"
Li Cangyu laughed loudly, the group of monsters was over, and the sharing of spoils began!
Just see, what good equipment can I get!
By the way...
"What about Hao Tingyu?" Li Cangyu asked.
Wei Jiansu frowned, "Although he has made contributions, he has violated the law and kidnapped the two Taoists without permission."
"What?" Li Cangyu was stunned. "Why did he be convicted before asking the case? I haven't made any statement yet!"
Wei Jiansu smiled loudly, "Cangyu, you are just here to go through the motions."
"..." Li Cangyu understood.
The so-called "Censor's Trial" is just a superficial skill. The real game and battle do not happen here.
Everything has already been decided.
The sharing of the spoils has almost been decided.
"Then Hao Tingyu, it won't be a big trouble, right?" Li Cangyu asked.
"Unfortunate?" Wei Jiansu showed a strange expression, "How could he be unlucky after making such a great contribution? At least it was due to the merits and demerits, and it would not be higher or lower! In addition, if you find a way to subsidize him some gold, silver and treasures, there should be no problem."
"That's good..." Li Cangyu let out a sigh. That guy really told him that he was the mastermind in front of Gao Lishi! Fortunately, he wouldn't be in trouble because of this, otherwise I'll see where you cry?
A fool!
He is so righteous that his mind is broken, he is stupid!
After dinner, Wei saw Su and left. Before leaving, he smiled and told Li Cangyu that after he asked him to come to the court, he would answer whatever he asked and not mention any other words.
Li Cangyu understood it very well. It was like an open-book exam. He copied the standard answers and graduated perfectly!
Half an hour later, the official brought Li Cangyu to the court of the Censorate.
In the public court, the left prime minister Chen Xilie sat in the first place, with the Censor Yang Guozhong and the Dali Shaoqing Wei Jiansu being on the left and right.
But it was Yang Guozhong who asked about the case.
The questions asked were only simple. One was that Wang Yan asked Daoren Zeng to divine him privately and said that he had a destiny. The other was how Wang Yan killed innocent soldiers after he arrived that day, how did he bribe Li Cangyu, and how did he try to let his younger brother Wang Yan run away.
In short, the charges have been prepared, and all the questions are asked are - details.
Such a graduation defense will make a fool fail!
So Li Cangyu fully utilized his Chinese department's expertise and gave a wonderful speech vividly.
Yang Guozhong nodded and admired at all times, obviously very satisfied with Li Cangyu's defense.
Chen Xilie was also very satisfied.
Wei Jiansu was so satisfied that his old face smiled and bloomed.
"Grandpa Chen, why not ask this all today?" Yang Guozhong symbolically asked Prime Minister Chen Xilie for instructions.
"The case has been found out at this point. It can be over." Chen Xilie stood up, nodded and smiled at Li Cangyu with a very appreciative look. "I will take a step first and go to the palace to report to the saint."
"Give me a greeting to Mr. Chen."
After Chen Xilie left, Yang Guozhong walked to Li Cangyu.
Only then did Li Cangyu look at him seriously... This guy gave birth to a good skin!
"Thank you for your hard work." Yang Guozhong didn't have any special expression, and his tone was normal, "After going back, I'll have a good rest and nourish my spirits... Later, I'll do something big with Hao Tingyu!"
Li Cangyu bowed his hand, "What a big deal, Yang Zhongcheng?"
Yang Guozhong laughed loudly, and Wei Jiansu next to him also laughed.
"Search the house!"
Chapter completed!
